Abstract
The present invention provides a magnetic device for measuring scour depth. The magnetic device comprises a plurality of scour detecting units which are buried in the sediment and disposed at intervals along the direction perpendicular to the surface of water. Each scour detecting unit comprises: one or more magnetic sources; and one or more magnetic detecting elements configured to be apart from the magnetic source for a predetermined distance. The magnetic detecting element is utilized to detect the magnetic field generated by the magnetic source. The scour depth and the position where scour occurs are determined according to electronic signals corresponding to the magnetic strength detected by the respective magnetic detecting elements of the scour detecting units. The magnetic device of the present invention has many advantages including low cost, high efficiency, and such a device is easily deployed.
